On June 16, 2026, letters to the editor were published in the Citrus County Chronicle, expressing concerns about growth and development in Citrus County. Justin Krumholtz of Inverness wrote to voice his opinion on preserving the county’s charm and environment.
Krumholtz, a 41-year resident of Citrus County, emphasized that the area’s small towns, small businesses, country living, and nature life are what attract people to the area. He urged residents to protect the county’s natural environment and not to clear land for profit, which could lead to overcrowding and destruction of the county’s unique character.
The letter also touched on the topic of infrastructure, with Krumholtz noting that the county is still struggling to fix its existing roads. He suggested that instead of building new homes or businesses, residents should consider tearing down derelict homes and buildings to make way for new development.
Another letter published in the same edition expressed support for President Trump’s policies, citing his efforts to strengthen capitalism, reduce burdens on businesses, and improve conditions for economic growth.
